Videos tagged with Retroactive Law

This video discusses a legal victory for Alec Baldwin concerning a firearm enhancement charge in the 'Rust' shooting case. The Santa Fe District Attorney dropped the charge, citing that the law was enacted after the incident, making its application retroactive and thus unconstitutional. This legal argument is highlighted as potentially relevant to challenging the ATF's pistol brace rule, which also faces similar criticisms of retroactive application.

This video from Langley Outdoors Academy discusses a potential legal precedent set by Alec Baldwin's defense team in the 'Rust' shooting case. The defense argues that a firearm enhancement charge is unconstitutional due to retroactive application of a law passed after the incident. This argument could have significant implications for the ATF's Pistol Brace Rule, which is also seen by some as a retroactive application of regulations. The video features insights from Braden of Langley Outdoors Academy and references legal opinions from former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani.
